OR you could simply go to Control panel - Administrative tools - Event viewer
And see what the fault code is related to the failure and post that.
Westin had the bulk of info on what is happening on folders..
With the corrupted disk message: take that seriously.. restarting the machine will never fix that..
I use a tool called HDD regenerator to scan disks and repair (usage encouraged) bad sectors (read the guff for hddregen). I use a live CD OS for this. NB: larger the drive the longer this will take and the more sectors faulty.. in your case it is likely less than 5. and in the first 20% of the hdd expect a few hours.. the time is worth it
Followup with opening the Command Prompt and running CHKDSK /f
restart and see what errors you get now
